Trader Joe's blog and cooking.
There are some products that Trader Joe’s can do no wrong with. So many of them are in the dessert section too. Their macarons are solid, the key lime pie is just hitting shelves as is the seasonal macaron aux framboises, and don’t forget about Trader Joe’s Sublime Ice Cream Sandwiches live up to their…
If you listen to the Trader Joe’s podcast then you knew that there were two new strawberry items hitting shelves. If you didn’t know, then perhaps you are like me and live at the new items end case.
If I’ve had any complaints about the variety of food offered it tends to be only one: too many carbs/sugar. Well, perhaps Trader Joe’s is finally going to get on the low carb bandwagon with this product. Behold, yet another way Trader Joe’s is sneaking cauliflower into their products.
So let’s be honest. There are a lot of people out there who cannot have dairy for a variety of reasons: perhaps they are lactose intolerant or perhaps for ethical reasons. So why not add to the long list of nondairy dessert options at Trader Joe’s?
So maybe they brought back Trader Joe’s Ube ice cream this season to get us ready for a new application of ube. Besides, this is gluten-free and has a super kid-friendly color. But the flavor of the ice cream was subtle. And if you enjoy subtly flavored, then you’ll probably enjoy this too.
For the last year, I’ve seen various people post videos and pictures of purple-hued desserts. It wasn’t subtly hued either. It was a very in-your-face type of purple. Those confections weren’t all artificially colored. Nope, they were made with from a tuber called Ube. Now Trader Joe’s has hopped on the Ube train with their…
For the past few weeks, I’ve been living out of whatever can be microwaved and eaten relatively quickly. Hopefully, in a few more weeks I’ll have a bit more time to get back in the kitchen and get cooking for real. But for right now, there are certain go-to items that I pick up and…
Well, if having a watermelon mask is too hydrating as we move into the warmer months, then perhaps just a mist will be sufficient. Because if you read my review of the watermelon mask, then you know I compared it to Glow Recipe’s watermelon mask. However, this too might have certain similarities to another product.
I love trying new products from Trader Joe’s. The ones I enjoy trying the most aren’t actually edible. They’re actually the ones from the health and beauty aisle. They’re different and I love to see how they compare to some of the more expensive items I’ve accumulated and if I can cut some of those…
So one of my favorite items from Trader Joe’s has to be the vast selection of Indian entrees. I’m pretty sure I stock up just about every time I go. It’s single serve and far cheaper than visiting an Indian restaurant. And to be honest, I’ve liked some of the frozen entrees better than some…
As a kid, I remember certain food items and the joy the brought me. Namely, Funfetti cake mix along with the tub of icing and Dunkaroos which had the same Funfetti icing quality. If you are interested in reliving some of the ’90s nostalgia, then this isn’t a bad cookie to pick up.
Just a few weeks outside of summer time and some seasonal only items are hitting shelves. One flavor that makes a prominent appearance as we approach summertime is watermelon. We’ve seen the return of the Watermelon Cucumber Cooler, the Sparkling Watermelon juice, and I hope to see the return of the Watermelon Mint Tea tin.
If 2020 had a product of the year, then it would have to be toilet paper. I’m not sure why that has become a hot product. I’m also sure a lot of other people are just as bewildered about that as I am. Honestly, the product of the year probably should be hand soap. However,…
Mother’s Day is almost here. And perhaps you won’t be able to do a regular shopping trip for Mom this year. Or maybe going to a restaurant is out of the question. You can still show you care and have thought about Mom if you think a bit outside the regular big box store.
